I don't think there's much doubt that BSPD will deliver the *technical* benefits claimed -- lower voltage drops and access resistance...

No matter how sexy a subject it is today, AI/ML doesn't let you break the laws of physics, with thermocouples or anything else... ;-)

Given that thermocouples/thermoelectric coolers are very inefficient and power-hungry, using them to try and cool "hot chips" will...

Yeah, maybe 80 to 90% of the chip can tolerate a fault. That still leaves 20% or so that needs to be faultless - but that is just a 1.6...

I don't think we're disagreeing here... ;-)
One problem is that "PPA" is too simplistic -- if one process is better on all three counts...

Not anyone actually using TSMC as opposed to just talking about them... ;-)

The argument about who is right about whether 18A or N3P is better misses the point, which is that there's not always a single "better"...

That's true up to a point, but it can rarely completely fix yield problems though it can certainly improve yield from extremely low to...

Plenty of reticle sized chips at TSMC and elsewhere, but even with TSMC defect densities -- which AFAIK are the best in the business --...

The difference is that ASML are in the area where equipment costs are going up the fastest (EUV and soon low-NA EUV) because it's...

Don't see where "talking down the competition" comes from -- we have no intention of using Intel until their level of support for...

Mils for PCB rules. Just don't get me started... :-(

I was simply relaying what TSMC told us when we asked which process we should be targeting after N3... :)
At the IP level BPD is more...

You need to be careful about making assumptions like "backside power is best" -- TSMCs recommendations for N2 is that the BPD process is...
